I installed linux mint 14 cinnamon on my usb and used a program called universal-usb-installer which exctracts the iso file in the usb, i reboot and enter the bios and change the 1st boot drive to the usb, and when i went to it said start linux and more things to go on, i clicked on start linux, it loaded and some kind of cmd popped up with commands and such, and it keeps on showing "Nouvea failed to idle channel 2 - 3 - 4" and it just does that, and sometimes it switches to a blank black screen and it switches back. I heard its something about nvidia cards (i have nvidia gtx8800)
